About Athletic Club of York

I have been a member of The Athletic Club for 16 years, and it is definitely the best "Club" in York. The atmosphere is very comfortable, and NOT a meat market like the other gyms in the area. The staff has always been friendly and helpful, and the owners are great. They are there all of the time, and if you have an issue you can talk with them directly. Some of the equipment is older, but free weights are free weights. My wife loves the group fitness classes that are offered, and we both take advantage of the pool and locker room amenities(steam room, sauna, jacuzzi). I highly recommend the Athletic Club if you are looking for a mult-purpose health club.

Not only is this gym outdated - old equipment which needs repairs, locker rooms that need major overhauls, etc - it's too expensive. If Planet Fitness can offer $10 memberships, why are we paying $40 at a club that is in need of serious repair. Also the owners of TAC are known to be scumbags. One owner left his wife and son a few years ago for the mistress he met at the gym. Not that he was ever faithful to his wife before this mistress. The other owner began an affair with a member AFTER finding out his wife was expecting their first child together. They are players with no morals. We can only hope that The Athletic Club will soon close its doors and these men will lose everything they have so that they realize their actions have consequences. They advertise that they're a family friendly club but it's nothing but a meat market.

My children and I stopped in to this place to inquire about swimming lessons. As soon as wel walked in the door you would have thought that we were non existant. Of the three people in the office, not one of them acknowledged that we were there. After asking for info about the swimming lessons one of the girls basically pointed towards a stack of papers and kept right on doing what she was doing. You would have thought we had the plague because no one would even bother to answer my questions as to say...You are NOT welcome here! Even the so called manager wouldnt take the time to assist us. I guess we werent the right color for this piece of crap club!!! The prices for the classes were decent but i refuse to expose my children to such treatment. Really sad....its 2011.

I have never written a bad review before. I believe if you don??t have anything nice to say, then you shouldn??t say it at all. In this case, I felt compelled to warn other consumers because of the high price of the membership. I would not recommend The Athletic Club. From my experience, the members there are extremely rude and act like the own the place (I have had several incidents in only 6 months). They are inconsiderate and thoughtless and don??t seem to understand the concept of sharing (even if you get there first). The owner I met seemed to be complacent. The bathroom vent isn??t covered so you can see large, gray dust deposits in it. It is filthy. The place is small and the equipment is old and outdated. I used to go to LA Fitness for 3 years and liked that much better. The only reason we switched is because we wanted to bring the whole family and LA Fitness had an age limit. I can??t wait until my contract is up so I can go back to LA Fitness. I met one nice lady, but she isn??t the norm, thus far. I think for the money, the atmosphere and equipment just aren??t worth the price.

The Athletic Club of York is a facility filled with outdated and constantly broken equipment. It seems as though they haven't updated any of the equipment in years and won't for quite some time. Their service towards their own members is even worse. I have contacted them twice, once via the phone, the other in person, to cancel my membership. Every time I was told I would receive a call back within two days, the first time 3 weeks went by without any contact until I had to call, I am currently waiting again and it's already been over two days. All in all their equipment is terrible, the price is outrageous compared to other gyms in the area and their service is horrendous. Please avoid The Athletic Club of York.

The Athletic Club has lots to offer to get into shape. Whether you like to swim, bike, walk on the treadmill, or take a class they have it all. It is fun to go with your family, friends or just by yourself.
